A New Version of An Old Story.

One day, when little Red Riding-hood
went home from school, her mother
asked her if she would like to take a
basket of cookies to grandma. Oh,
yes, indeed" answered Red Riding
hood, always glad of an excuse to 90 TO
grandmother's. SO she put on her lit
tie red cloak with the red hood. and,
with a goodbye kiss from mamma, ran
singing down the road, with the basket
of cakes upon her arm. Soon an old
friend called out to her: " Peweel
pewee! give crumbs to mel" 1t was
the birdie up in the elm-tree. Not to-
day." said Red Riding-hood. 81 must
take my cakes all to grandma this time"
As she crossed the little bridge over
the brook, she stopped minute to look
at the fishes, and they, too, seemed to
expect feast from her hand. But she
ran on, even past the great oak in the
woods, where sat another friend, the
wise old owl. "Tu-whit! Tu-who?
called the owl. "Why, to grandma, of
COURSE" answered the little girl. As
she went deeper into the woods, out
from the shadow of the trees suddenly
came Mr.. Wolf. Good-day, little Red
Riding-hood, he said. "What have
you there?' Cookies for grandma"
said the little girl. "Give me some!"
demanded Mr.. Wolf Not to-day, :"
answered she. every well =" replied
Mr.. Wolf, in the blandest tones. But
he did not mean every WELL" at all
for he was crafty and cunning in his
heart. He knew of a short path by
which he could reach the grandmother
before she did; so awayhe sped. When
he came to the little brown house the
door stood open and there was no one
in sight, for grandma was in the garden
feeding the white pigges in the pen.
SO he ventured in. He took down a
big checked apron from its nail by the
door and put it on then he put on the
great RULED cap that was hanging on
one of the high posts of the bed, and
finally the spectacles that he saw lying
on an open book by the window. Then
he sat down at the little wheel and be.
gan to spin. Just then Red Riding
hood knocked at the door. Come
in!' said Mr.. Wolf. I've brought
you some cookies, grandma" said the
little girl Very well,' said Mr.
Wolf, and he began to eat them as fas
as he could. That was not a bit lik,
grandma, and little Red Riding-hoot
stood dumb with wonder, when sud
denly who should come in but grandm;
herself. She saw how it was at glance
for she knew how crafty and cunnin.
the sly wolf was. So she just laid he
finger upon her lip to make little Rec
Riding-hood keep silent, while she tool

door. Down upon Mr.. VOLTS back sh,

jump up and look around. "Tak,
that" she cried, " and that and that
until Mr.. Wolf fairly roared with pain
"Now," said she, take off that capt.
And he took it off. Nov take of
those spectacles!" And he took then
off. "And now run home for YOU

deserved the victory they worked so
hard to secure. Whitney pitched mas
terly game for the home team and as his
support was almost perfect zone eXcus-
able error barring perfect record, the
champions were unable to send man
around the bases, and had to submit TO
their first whitewash of the season.
Baldwin also pitched effectively, but his
support in the field was uncertain. and
behind the bat it was WI etched. Myers
played a brilliant game at second, as did
also DonneIly Neither had much to do.
but their chances were difficult, one stop
by Donnelly being marvellous. In the last
inning AnS0n knocked the ball over the
left-field fence. When he reached third
Carroll. the left fielder of the Washing
tons. pretended that he had the ball,
which Arson believed. The latter. for
a few minutes, was ratified. He would
start for his base and Carroll would
make a feint to throw, then AnsOn
would retrace his steps. This ludic-
rOuS situation was heartily enjoyed by
the spectators. but Arson could not
take in the situation until the whole
Chicago team surrounded the captain at
the same time. telling him that the ball
went over the fence. AnSOn then went
to third base. and. although he had am
pie timetO score, did not do 50, for reasons
best known to himself. There was only
one man out, while AnSOn was on third,
and the SuppOSitiOn is that he thought.
he could rattle the home players and
win the game, or that he was so ratified
himself that he did not know what he
was doing. This incident was really the
feature of the game. Score:

QUIET AT HONOLULU.
No Further Outbreaks and None
AntiCipated.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 12.-The steam
ship Australia arrived this morning
from Honolulu, having sailed thence
July 5. No further outbreaks or dem
OnStratiOnS of any character occurred
tplace on Friday and Saturday, June 80
and July l, which resulted in the over
throw of the Gibson ministry and the
obtaining of a written pledge from King
Kalakaua to promote constitutional re-
forms and submit to the will of the
people. The new constitution was to be
laid before the king Oh the day the steam
er sailed. EX-Premier Gibson and his SON
in-law, L. III. HaySelden, were held in Jail
until the night of July 2, when Gibson
was allowed to remove to his house,
where he remains under military guard.
His trial was set for July 6. The eX-
citement had so far subsidized by July
that the celebration of the American
national holiday was handsomely OBJ
served. Three Honolulu papers in COM
mentS upon the change of adminiStra-
ton predict no further public outbreaks
to be expected, provided the new con-
StitutiOn is adopted and reforms inaug-
urated. The Hawaii Gazette, of July
5, in an editorial says: 1.-THE word of
the king cannot be taken by the people.
1t has been proved time and again that
it is not worth the paper it is written on
In fact, we remember the circumstances
so we'll we are not going to be deceived
again. In reviewing the occurrences of
June 80, it seems the king was at first
strongly inclined to resist the de-
mands of the people, but changed
his mind when he found the
palace deserted by all the soldiers
and retainerS. Even after acquiescing
in all the demands he appeared to think
his life i'll danger. This caused him to
ask the American and other foreign rep
resentativeS to assume control of affairs
temporarily. The Daily Bulletin de-
clares the new ministry has found that
in addition to the regular revenue, all
postal savings bank deposits have dis
appeared aud the loan fund been used
to fill gaps in the revenue. The Bulle-
tin says: 1.-The treasury is. empty and
there is only a balance of the last loan
remittance available for any purpose.
The government has received in two in
stallments from London S294 900, but it
is paying interest upon million dollars,
while the manipulatorS of the loan have
been handling the balance without ref
erence to the provisions of the loan act.
Such a condition of things is intolera-
bler
